Hi Matt
We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the home and found it comfortable and convenient. I truly appreciate you letting us know about the minor issues. I’ve already passed these on to our maintenance team so they can be fixed right away. Thanks again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back next time you’re in Taupō!
The property was close to town and the lake front and easy to find. The older kids liked that they could go to a skate park that was nearby when we were at the house. Was large enough to accommodate our stay and comply. Great time had by everyone
Great house, we were 8 mates on a golfing trip, nice to come home to the spa.
Showers and bathrooms were brilliant.
Plenty of room in the kitchen and lounge for everyone to do their thing, and best of all we all had our own bed.
Will definitely stay there again.
Cheers Glenn
